I knew Mrs. Betsy from work. I was at Woodcrest Elementary in The Cafeteria and When she would come through either at the window or through the line she always had a Smile and always said hello how's your day going. She always seemed up beat. She was a Beautiful Lady inside and out. She touched every one that crossed her path. She was a friend to everyone. She will be missed by everyone. I'm honored to call her my friend. I just come across her page on Facebook. Sorry I couldn't be there. Am so sorry for her families loss. I miss you Betsy love you

Our prayers go out to all of you through this difficult time. Betsy had the awesome capability to make everyone feel welcome and loved. She was a second mother to my daughter and I will always treasure the memories that she helped to make for her. Her legacy will always include the strong and caring family that she has raised. I ask the Lord to bring you all comfort and peace in the days ahead.

A beautiful person full of hope and happiness has left us, yet even as we grieve for our beloved Betsy we know that an even brighter light now shines down on us from heaven. I didn't have the privilege of knowing Betsy personally, but was friends with her on Facebook. Her prayers that she posted these last couple of months gave no hint of the physical pain that she was experiencing, only the emotional joy of living life to the fullest. I believe it was her way of preparing her friends and family for the time when she would no longer be with us. No one had to look any further than the great big smile on Betsy's face to know that here was a person of great faith and happiness. Good bye Betsy, I will always remember your beautiful and radiant smile.

Betsy and I grew up in the same neighborhood in Port Neches..her on 2nd street and I on 1st street. We were both fortunate enough to grow up in a time where neighbors really knew each other, even if it spanned several streets. I think this attribute is what molded Betsy into being the warm, loving, & compassionate person that she was. God certainly has gained another beautiful Angel at his side.May God bless all of her family! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all....

I am sincerely sorry for the loss of your mother.
